Data that spans markets and asset classes

The background visualization on our homepage is driven by Markit's broad and dynamic suite of data offerings, which includes pricing information and index families across asset classes. Through a combination of leading technology and industry expertise, we refine and distribute billions of gigabytes of data on a daily basis to deliver insight into the global financial markets. The movements here are a reflection of actual data points we are delivering to our clients.

The Markit PMI™ series are monthly economic surveys of carefully selected companies compiled by Markit. They provide advance insight into the private sector economy by tracking variables such as output, new orders, employment and prices across key sectors. Economic analysts, business decisionmakers, forecasters and policy makers leverage PMIs to better understand business conditions in any given economy. Central banks in many countries use the data to help make interest rate decisions, and analysts in the financial markets use PMI data to forecast official economic data.
